Today marks the start of the 5th annual San Francisco Cocktail Week in the Bay Area of California.

Cocktail Week offers an incredible array of cocktail parties, one-of-a-kind spirit, bar and cocktail classes, neighborhood cocktail crawls, culinary events, festive galas and more.

One of the popular events is called Best of the West, a bartender competition in which the contestants are given specific challenges and must create a drink that best represents their cities.

The entire week is presented by the Barbary Coast Conservancy of the American Cocktail (BCCAC), a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage of saloons and their cocktails in San Francisco. So you can raise your glass guilt-free! After all, you are just doing your part to help preserve the Bay Area’s cultural heritage.
